[Docket No. CP95-209-000, et al.]
Columbia Gas Transmission Corp., et al.; Natural Gas Certificate
Filings
February 28, 1995.
Take notice that the following filings have been made with the
Commission:
1. Columbia Gas Transmission Corp.
[Docket No. CP95-209-000]
Take notice that on February 21, 1995, Columbia Gas Transmission
Corporation (Columbia), 1700 MacCorkle Avenue, S.E., Charleston, West
Virginia, 25314, filed in Docket No. CP95-209-000 an application
pursuant to Section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act for authorization to
construct and operate certain replacement storage facilities and for
permission and approval to abandon the existing segment of storage
facilities being replaced, all as more fully set forth in the
application on file with the Commission and open to public inspection.
Columbia proposes to construct and operate approximately 0.9 mile
of 20-inch storage pipeline as a replacement for 0.9 mile of 16-inch
storage pipeline, which will be abandoned. Columbia estimates the cost
of the proposed construction to be $3,076,000. The segment of storage
pipeline to be replaced is designated as Line X-77-F-1, and is located
in Grady Storage Field, Pocahontas County, West Virginia.
Columbia does not request authorization for any new or additional
service and states that the replacement line would facilitate on-line
pigging in an 8.8 mile continuous section of 20-inch pipeline from
Glady Compressor Station to a point where the 20-inch pipeline will
meet existing 12-inch pipeline in the Glady Storage Field.
Comment date: March 21, 1995, in accordance with Standard Paragraph
F at the end of this notice.
2. Trunkline Gas Co.
[Docket No. CP95-222-000]
Take notice that on February 23, 1995, Trunkline Gas Company
(Trunkline), P.O. Box 1642, Houston, Texas 77251-1642, filed in Docket
No. CP95-222-000 a request pursuant to Section 7 of the Natural Gas
Act, as amended, and Sections 157.205 and 157.216(b) for authorization
to abandon a delivery point located in Newton County, Texas, all as
more fully described in the request which is on file with the
Commission and open for public inspection.
Specifically, Trunkline proposes to abandon the facilities
associated with its delivery point located at the terminus of
Trunkline's 3-inch, Line 43A-100, Newton County, Texas (Abstract
H.T.&B., A-192). Trunkline proposes to abandon this delivery point
which was formerly used to deliver gas to producers for gas-lift
operations at the Sabine Tram Field. Trunkline has been notified by
S.M.A. Production Company, the current customer, that the delivery
point is no longer required and can therefore be abandoned. Trunkline
proposes to abandon the delivery point by removing the above-ground
measurement facilities from the delivery point site for future use.
Trunkline states that the facilities are not used for any other
transportation agreements.
Comment date: April 14, 1995, in accordance with Standard Paragraph

install an additional meter tube, authorized in blanket certificate
issued in Docket No. CP82-535-000, all as more fully set forth in the
request on file with the Commission and open to public inspection.

Eastern's 30-inch Line No. 20 at Mile Post 42.94 in Union

Eastern states that the costs of the proposed meter tube would be
$60,000, which Texas Eastern would pay and waive the reimbursement by

Standard Paragraphs
F. Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with
reference to said application should on or before the comment date,

20426, a motion to intervene or a protest in accordance with the
requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18
CFR 385.214 or 385.211) and the Regulations under the Natural Gas Act
(18 CFR 157.10). All protests filed with the Commission will be
considered by it in determining the appropriate action to be taken but

accordance with the Commission's Rules.
Take further notice that, pursuant to the authority contained in

Regulatory Commission by Sections 7 and 15 of the Natural Gas Act and
the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, a hearing will be
held without further notice before the Commission or its designee on
this application if no motion to intervene is filed within the time
required herein, if the Commission on its own review of the matter
finds that a grant of the certificate and/or permission and approval
for the proposed abandonment are required by the public convenience and
necessity. If a motion for leave to intervene is timely filed, or if
the Commission on its own motion believes that a formal hearing is
required, further notice of such hearing will be duly given.
Under the procedure herein provided for, unless otherwise advised,
it will be unnecessary for applicant to appear or be represented at the
hearing.
G. Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 45 days after

the Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205) a protest to
the request. If no protest is filed within the time allowed therefor,
the proposed activity shall be deemed to be authorized effective the
day after the time allowed for filing a protest. If a protest is filed
and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a
protest, the instant request shall be treated as an application for
authorization pursuant to Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act.
